I have a Win 7 Pro 64 desktop and a Win 7 Home Premium laptop networked ( via workgroup not homegroup) I went to add a Vista laptop to workgroup and it asks for user name and password. Everything is set for no password, all folders, drives etc are set for sharing. At one point I was able to view...

Hi all, I'm running into three issues which I'm guessing are related --
1) Windows 7 seems to protect certain folder trees differently than others. In particular, the Program Files tree. If I try to copy a file to a folder in that tree or rename a file in one of the folders, I get a dialog...

I need some serious help guys. I'm not exactly dumb in the field of computers but this one has me stumped.
Half of the folders on my computer are locked for absolutely no reason. My friend did something by accident (he doesn't know what) and now all my folders with itunes (music) and my...

OK, full story. I was meddling a bit with the security settings for my C: partition (where my Windows 7 resides) by right clicking the drive and selecting properties > security. The reason for doing so was because I thought someone had meddled with it first, so I was trying to get it back to...
Ok, so I tried setting my password file (save my passwords in) to apparently stupidly high security.
I have ownership, and set read and write permission to Deny through the security tab in the properties dialog for Admin through Guests. I assumed that, by having ownership, it would not Deny...
I have read and followed a lot of posts to no avail.
specifically I have followed the advice in "Share Files and Printers between Windows 7 and XP - How-To Geek" and "How to make Windows 7 work with older Windows versions for networking and file sharing"

I installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit this past weekend.
I believe that Protected mode is supposed to be on by default.
It isn't and no matter how I configure the security settings for IE8 I can't get it to turn on.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Backstory: I have been using Win7 since 7000 beta and played with it and love it (I'd consider myself pretty PC-saavy). But I'm having a problem with homegroup sharing on two computers.
I have a desktop running much like a server: having utorrent download (free and legal) torrents and...

In this presentation, we will discuss how to enable Parental Controls for a user. Enabling Parental Controls is pretty simple. What we want to do is go to the Start Menu under Windows 7, Control Panel, and we have an option under the Category View to Add or Remove User Accounts. At this time, we...

I'm a brand new Windows 7 user and very satisfied so far. I've created a Standard user account without password for use by visitors. I've already setup Parental Controls to limit access to programs. That seems to work well. My hard drive is divided into two partitions: C: and E: for OS/programs...
Hi!
I was tired of not being able to save files in Program Files without starting the program [that saved files] manually as administrator. So I ran the command attrib -R "C:\program files" in the command prompt, and now Windows 7 seems to have reverted to some kind of default protection mode...
